Three Best Reading Responses

1) Alberta Devor
Alberta's reading response to the poem My Papa's Waltz, is a good example of a good reading response.One thing that I liked, was that she took the time to analyze each stanza. After each stanza, she wrote a small paragraph on what it made her think and feel. By the end of the response, with help from each analyzed stanza, it was clear what she believed the poem was really about. Although I don't think that the poem was about the father abusing his son, Alberta's response was really good.

2) Solana Schlau-Appenzeller 
Solana's reading response to the poem My Papa's Waltz, is another good example of a good reading response. I like her introduction because not only did she include her thoughts, but she also included things we discussed in class. I also liked how she referred back to parts of the poem to prove her ideas. Lastly, I like how she did a self-to-self connection.


3) Ruby Walsh
Ruby's reading response to the poem My Papa's Waltz, was really good. I liked how she wrote a paragraph from each perspective. She included things we said in class and wrote how it made her feel. She did a very good job elaborating and referred back to the poem. One thing I found interesting, was that she did a before and after idea thinking. ( If that makes sense.)
